With this national school policy, sometime most learners can’t enroll to their first choice schools where they like to be academically educated due to the fact that there are some limitations to the numbers of enrollees to the different educational learning institutes. These population rates of learners are not only applicable to the private schools but as well to the public educational learning institutes. Just recently, there had been changes to the standard size of the population rate of the enrollees in the different educational learning institutes in the country. In which, the government have already given its approval to allow the different schools to extend the standard limitation of the population rate that been set by the government. It means that the different educational learning institutes can be able to over pass the standards population size that the government is setting to them but only 26 numbers of learners are acceptable.

Since, establishing and maintaining a boarding educational learning institute really entails a high budget and it will be feared by some state officials that the state fund can’t afford it but despite of that, the establishment of the boarding educational learning institute will continue to pursue. Since, majority of the lawmakers and the society have won the approval in regards to the establishment of the boarding educational learning institutes. Besides, the cost will be cut out because some of the public schools will be utilized and be use that will serve as a boarding school for both children and teenagers.
As soon as possible this plan out boarding educational learning institutes will be realize because the government have seen the need to establish it. Since, the population rates of the homeless individuals have continually to increase and the government is very much concern about their welfare especially in terms of their academic, emotional and quality of living due to the fact that boarding educational learning institutes is a very helpful gage for the orphan and homeless individuals to obtain a brighter future.
